Subject: Can we please have a major fork of Linux into a modern and legacy
 versions ?

I hear Linux is going to drop a lot of legacy devices including the
ones dropped already. I am wondering if we can please have a major
fork of Linux into a modern and legacy versions ?

With a consolidation and security updates to the older version.

Kind Regards,

Aaron
